According to specification, it is more like to laptop rather than internet tablet. It could be the fastest touch pad coz’ of processor but it is thicker than other tablet. It uses Windows 7 operation system so that it is convenient for bunch of Window users. (This is not relating to overview: I strongly feel that Hp should use better marketing force like Apple's that they create attention, buzz as well as prompt customer action to buy one even though their product may or may not as good as they announced)

Therefore, if you want to change your heavy laptop with lighter one, HP might be a practical one.
